LionClock doesn’t use or depend upon Microsoft Office or Access. However, LionClock uses the Microsoft Common Control component (Mscomctl.ocx) for certain dialog features. This is a standard Microsoft file that is frequently upgraded by applications including Microsoft Office. This is a known Office 2000 issue that has several causes. One cause is that Office was installed on Windows 2000/XP using a non-administrative user account. In that case, when Office installed the Mscomctl.ocx file, it could not register it properly. Therefore, when launching any third party applications that reference the control, Windows will either prompt for the Office CD to complete the installation or generate an error. The solution is to load the Office CD when prompted and allow Office to complete the installation. If you receive a 1706 error instead of the CD prompt, you must login with an administrator account, start the affected application and load the Office CD when prompted. For more detailed infor
